  Now\n\n\n\n\nJoin award-winning globetrotting Kiwi comedian\, Penny Ash
 ton\, as she takes everyone through the trials and tribulations of bring
 ing Austen’s works to stages around the world. The brain behind three 
 separate Austen inspired theatrical shows (Promise and Promiscuity\, Aus
 ten Found and Sense &amp\; Sensibility)\, Ashton is also the 5th great-n
 iece of Austen’s flirtation\, Thomas Langlois Lefroy\, who some have t
 heorised was an inspiration for Mr Darcy himself.\n\n\n\nPenny will talk
  about her famous relative via her Australian mother\, about his nephew 
 (and her 3rd great-grandfather) outback explorer Gerald DeCourcy Lefroy\
 , and about who the hell she thinks she is putting words in Jane Austen�
 ��s Mouth.\n\n\n\nPenny has performed over 1000 solo shows from Auckland
  to Edinburgh to Perth. She is well known for plundering great works of 
 literature by Austen\, Dickens and Shakespeare and creating lively\, com
 edy musicals in fond and utterly hilarious tributes to them.\n\n\n\n“I
 t’s difficult to tell where Austen ends and Ashton begins in this deli
 ghtful show” ★★★★★ - CBC Canada\n\n\n\n“Jane Austen would 
 be spinning in her grave… with delight.” ★★★★★ - Rip it Up
 \, Adelaide\n\n\n\n"‘A comedy tsunami’ is how Ashton has been descri
 bed by a press writer recently. Her presentation at our meeting took the
  form of a mini-show and was well-received. It was a fast-paced\, comedi
 c taste of her musical stage productions\, leaving us believing that ‘
 Mr Darcy’s Niece’ has a delightful and distinguished talent worthy o
 f the many accolades she has received." Jane Austen Society of Australia
